MEETING OF THE CITY MYTHS.
Their Division on the Inauguration
(luestlou.
This tody of myths met, according to cus
tom, last Thursday, and spent an interesting
eason in debating the merits of various ques
tions of public utility, the most prominent of
Which was the propriety of thi3 body going to
Oirard College to a Presidential inauguration.
To be sure, it was not a President of the United
States, nor even a President of the Pennsylva
nia Railroad Company, but still it was an
Invitation that involved an official recognition
f the inauguration ceremonies, to say nothing
of the earriage ride; and it became this august
Tbody to make it a subject of debate, as much
so as if it was the paving of a street or build
ing of a sewer.
The invitation to the myths came from one
Foust, a trusty Trustee of the College, but
Myth King did not think Councils were pre
pared to accept the invitation. Why they
Were thus caught unprepared he did not say;
Bnrely it was not because their boots were not
Idacked; for that could have been done right
on the steps of the Ilall of Independence: on
the same step, in fact, from which John Han
cock read the Declaration of Independence to
the well-dressed colonists assembled, including
few Indians, according to the pictures. Their
jinpreparedness may have been on account of
not having clean shirts, all of them; but this
preparation was wholly unnecessary, if we
are to believe the Directors of the College, for
they say the place and inmates are overrun
with vermin, and they probably know, as
their office requires them to be frequent
Visitors, and to be perfectly familiar with all
the tenants of the College. Indeed, the matron
told ns that there were more children from
the families of "big bugs" in the College this
Season than ever before. Be that as it may,
the invitation for the myths to visit the Col
lege and witness the inauguration ceremonies
was not received kindly.
The myth, who first raided the objection
Wished an answer returned similar to the one
used in fashionable life of "Not at Home," or
"Don't see it," according to the fashion of the
party usiDg it; but Myth Stokley moved that
they go; he had never been through College,
and he meant to taka this opportunity to go
through it.
Myth Smith hoped the motion of the afore
said myth would not prevail. The myths
were losing all of their dignity to go and see a
College President inaugurated, and such a
College 1
Myth King moved to postpone the going for
one week. What his idea of a Oirard College
inauguration was, or how long the ceremonies
would last, we do not know. It seems as
though he thought it was something like an
Easter Carnival at Rome, in making a motion
to attend a week after the time fixed for it to
tegin.
Myth Cattell said that if one-half of what
the Board of Directors said about the thiugs
at the College was true, the myths ought not
to go near it.
After further discussion, Myth King with
drew his motion and notion of going a week
after the fair, and moved to lay it on the table
instead. Many of hia fellow-myths approved a
MOTION LIKE THAT.
Myth Smith said he was going to the inau
guration,' and he would like to hare Uwnj.
along: he believed it was in accordftTUM irUa
the will of Mr. Girard.
Myth King moved to refer the invitation to
the Committee on Caicusea. He believed
that was ia accordance witk Mr. Gixwd'a will.
Mtb Harlow said it was highly improper
for a bodv like theirs o go to an Organs
College, at their time of life, to see anything.
He moved they go down to the Pish House
iutend. This was carried by ncclamation.
The thing now bavin;; been played out, a
vote was taken on the propiiety of accepting
the invitation, which resulted overwhelmingly
in the Select Myths not going near the place.
If it be true what the Committee of Investiga
tion say about the College, particularly as
regards the "moral mould," the decision of
the myths in this in tance was as wise as it
was Lcalthy.
Among the Conuivm Myths, in the other
Chamber, quite a diilmvut result was arrived
at. When will the city construct a telegraph
between these two bodies, so that the actions
of cither will not invite comparisons by their
so olten directly oppo.Mto course on the same
questions ? Whether it is getting rid of worm3
(out of the squares), or salting railroad tracks,
or building Nicolson pavements, or on reading
Biikinbiue's water communications, there
seems to be such an utter failure to agree in
their views, that we often wonder, if there were
a half dozen more branches to this municipal
tree, whether they would all come to directly
opposite conclusions on the same thing. It
seems to us that it Fpe,-,ks very bad or very
good, like the woman's indigo, we don't know
which, for the wisdom of the two bodies.
In the Common Myths, Myth Ilancotls
moved to accept; ho w;;s not going to stand on
a little piece of diplomacy when a jaunt to the
College, and perhaps a little feed, could be
had for the mere asking.
Myth Iletzel moved to go through the table
motion, but was prevented. He then moved
to go to the inauguration, but to put the time
olf indefinitely. This he thought was more in
accordance with Mr. Oirard's will.
Myth Harper said the invitation was in bad
taste. Their body had appointed a committee
to investigate things at the College, and until
that committee had got through their tasting
this body ought not to have a linger in the pie.
Myth Shoemaker
fm i
ri'T IT IN TUIS AVAY.
If this body accept this invitation, they (this
body) become, in a manner, committed to the
action of the committee, and the Directors
who are being hauled over the coals by the
committee look to this body. If this body do
not accept the invitation, then the Directors
will be handled by the committee, and thi3
body can be as it always has been, and the
President that is inaugurated to-day may ho
dismissed to-morrow without compromising
this body. I believe this to be in accordance
with the will of Mr. Oirard.
Myth Billington thought the same.
Several other myths thought the same, and
differently, and all finally concluded to go, and
the messenger was told to hurry off and en
gage carriages before the other Chamber of
Myths had taken up all the choice ones.
After this the myths fell back into the
streets, figuratively speaking, and after pav
ing a few squares, and unpaving others, ad
journed. One of the Deputy Sheriffs arrives at his
desk at 9 o'clock A. M. (sharp),'1 and is
delighted to find a little white envelope on it.
lie thinks Arabella has called there early, on
her morning walk down Chesnut street.
Y
lit) is nothing, if mt disgusted, to find a
uot., written in an official hand, as follows:
Di:ar Sir : Your services as Deputy Sheriff"
are no longer needed in this department.
For the Sherill',
Jons Brown.
The members of Select Council, in refusing
to go to (iirard College, object to being cast
into the "moral mould" which the Committee
of Investigation say is there. It seems to us,
if we were going to mould a City Councilman
we would use one of i hat sort; that is, if he
would "ruu'Mnone.
In answer to au advHrtisemont of one of the
political parties in t:JW- York for stump
speakers, two wooden-legged soldiers pre
sents themselves. They learned that the
"stump" qualification was not the main one.
A Gram-ink J.AM.LOMwMr. J. Long, of
I aekney, Inland ha jURt availed himself of
, the passing ot the Hetoim bill to not.if.
fight hundred tenants that he wishes them to
Ipaybim in future the same rent they have
hitherto been paying under a compounding

ally besides.
